CAIRO (Reuters) - Egypt says it will receive the next $2 billion (1.5 billion pounds) instalment of a $12 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in the second half of July, newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm reported on Tuesday.

The paper quoted Finance Minister Mohamed Maait as saying this would be the fourth instalment of the loan, agreed in late 2016, and would bring the total Cairo has received so far to $8 billion.
